Page 4: About The Quantum Vii Real Time Bia
In Scheduled BIA mode measurements are taken at specific intervals from 2 seconds to 24 hours. Any interval above 20 seconds will cause the Quantum VII to sleep until the next sample time arrives. The instrument will then wake up for 5 seconds to take a new measurement, average them and create a new report record. - Page 5 LAN is configured. This will precisely set the clock / calendar to 1 second accuracy. Battery: The Quantum VII uses a 7.4 Volt 850 mAh Lithium Ion battery with smart protection and is CE, RoHS MSDS Certified. will last more than 6 hours of continuous operation and can be recharged ...
- Page 6 An event file can have 32,768 records and must be manually reset with the CLEAR SUBJECT DATA menu entry. The only method to access any record is with the WiFi feature of the Quantum VII and its website. The Local Area Network (LAN) SSID and password will have to be set for the first time for the IP address of the website to work.

Page 7: Architecture And Specifications
Architecture: The Quantum VII is built around a low power Arduino NANO 33 IOT (Internet of Things) with the following features: Micro-controller Low power Arm Cortex_MO+ 32 bit SAMD21 Radio Module U-box NINA-W102 including Wifi and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) for communications... -

Page 9: Using The Quantum Vii (Getting Started)
Before turning the analyzer on, prepare the subject (patient) as described in Performing a BIA Test page 24. Insert the subject cable into the top connector of the Quantum VII and start analyzer by pressing the middle ON button. In Classic BIA mode a splash screen will begin and take about three seconds then a green flash appears indicating there are no errors reading the calibration values. -

Page 15: Scheduled Bia Data Logging
When SET SAMPLE TIME is greater than zero the scheduler is active. It is always started by press the ON button momentarily when the Quantum VII is OFF. That gives the user a chance to set up an experiment (relocate the analyzer and connecting leads) before scheduling BIA observations. It is a good idea to start the scheduler at a time that is convenient, such as the second and minute hand on a watch, to know when it will turn back on. -

Page 19: Proper Care Of The Analyzer And The Cables
RJL analyzers are built to last. Many RJL instruments built over 20 years ago are still being used today. The instruments we design and build are subjected to our rigorous quality assurance testing procedures. Like all sensitive electronic instruments, proper care and handling will minimize the risk of damage. CLEANING &... -
Page 20: Subject Cables Information
Test Resistors are supplied with every Analyzer - cables can be tested before BIA testing is done. RJL Systems will supply additional Test Resistors at no charge other than a shipping fee. Replacement cables can be purchased from RJL and shipped via “overnight” delivery if necessary. -

Page 22: Preparation For Subject Testing
Preparation for subject testing (WHAT TO DISCUSS WITH SUBJECT PRIOR TO TESTING) Subjects who do not adhere to the pre-testing protocols Failure to adhere to the pre-testing protocols described on the next page could alter the way the body interacts with the electrical signal of the BIA. This could alter the body's resistance and reactance, which would result in altered body composition estimates produced by the software. -
Page 23: Pre-Testing Protocol For The Subject
Pre-testing protocol for the subject Explain testing procedures to the subject and address any questions or concerns prior to testing. Name, gender, age, height, weight, and side of body being tested should be recorded. If exceptions to Testing Protocol are evident (i.e. subject tested sitting up due to wheelchair use) record the exception in the database record in the comment field, and test that individual in consistent manner every time. -

- Page 31 Quantum VII Downloading Saved Data Every measurement made with the Quantum VII is saved on an internal SD card (8 GB). There are two files that contain Classical and Scheduled BIA measurements and have no size limitation. Each measurement is date and time stamped with all BIA values and characteristics.
- Page 32 Creating a CSV file Select (click) the Classical BIA Rec xxx or Scheduled BIA Rec xxx menu item and your browser will fill with all saved records as text lines with a top header that labels each field. This may take a while depending on how many records are saved (more than 1000).
